Aubrey was born on July 12, 1935, in Dickens County, Texas, to Cecil and Elizabeth (Wright) Mobley. Aubrey met and married the love of his life, Peggy Caddell, in 1955.
Aubrey went to work for El Paso Natural Gas Company and worked for them until he retired after 35 years. Aubrey and Peggy retired and settled down in Marble Falls. Some of the best memories are the times spent camping with family and friends. The mountains were a special place for the Mobley’s. Aubrey took time to teach fishing, boating, and just how to have fun. He loved his family. He also loved his sports and if he could make any games of his kids, grandkids, and great grandkids, he was there as a fierce supporter. He got frustrated, but the Cowboys were still his team.
In retirement, he became quite the cook-looking at recipes on line, and then to the grocery store to get ingredients for his next masterpiece. He was very in tune with the tech world and even had the latest IPhone! He researched everything he had a question about and Amazon became his best friend. Peggy said everyday was Christmas at least once a day or more. He loved watching birds and squirrels through the window with Max and Cole. If he wasn’t watching birds, it was GRIT, or Gunsmoke (for the 100th time), or a game of football, or college baseball, or whatever the season was.
He found his church home in Marble Falls at Crossview Baptist Church, and he loved his church family and the relationship he had with Pastor Boothe and his family.
Aubrey is survived by his wife Peggy, two brother’s Charles and wife Iris who live in MonteVista, Colorado, and Jimmy and wife Carla from Midland, Texas. He has two sons, Randy and wife Patti from Big Lake, Texas, and Robby and wife Gay from Midland, Texas, and a daughter Marlene who lives in Marble Falls. He has 6 grandkids, 10 great grandkids, 3 neices, 3 nephews and a brother in law Ray Caddell and wife Judy from Burke, Virginia.
Aubrey’s mind was as sharp as ever even when his body was struggling. He said to tell everyone he loved them as he started remembering things and fun times from recent and long ago. He talked about his love for his family, and also about growing up with his mom and dad and his brothers. He was our patriarch and we couldn’t have asked for a better man to lead our family.
